Electrical capacitance tomography has been widely used to obtain key hydrodynamic parameters of gas–solid fluidized beds, which is normally realized by first reconstructing …
Granular dynamics govern earthquakes, avalanches, and landslides and are of fundamental importance in a variety of industries ranging from energy to pharmaceuticals to agriculture …
Wet fluidization occurs when small amounts of liquid are injected into a fluidized bed, causing liquid bridges to form between particles. These liquid bridges create complex …
